Tell us about the product you only pull out for holiday parties—we’re calling these special-occasion items our zhuzh (or “jeuje” or “zhoosh”?) beauty products. Before that, we chat about Guido Palau’s new hair line for Zara; Jennifer Lawrence and Kylie Jenner discussing how makeup can make it seem like you had plastic surgery; Gen-X and Boomer (and Gen Alpha!) influencers; a collection of fantastically unhinged Fragrantica reviews; the powder palette that makes everyone’s skin look better; and cringey TV.

When content creator Liah Yoo started a skincare brand, her goal was to fix problems she saw with the Beauty Industrial Complex™ and its traditional business models. She’s here to explain how she’s doing that with Krave Beauty. We talk about how SPF testing works, ethical ingredient sourcing, the pressure retailers and investors put on brand founders, sustainability issues, and coping with negative social-media comments—plus the joys of Selling Sunset, Sun Chips, and laser hair removal!

Tis the season of beauty advent calendars, and we found out which ones give you the most value for your money. We’re also talking about the #looksmaxxing community, its sketchy roots, and its interest in skincare and mewing. Plus: Javier Milei’s wolverine hair; gendered grooming rules in elementary schools (we’re looking at you, Girard, Kansas); health concerns associated with scented candles; and the book Eyeliner: A Cultural History. Plus, we raise wands to lip balms, a candle that smells like hot cocoa, and a holiday-party mascara.

Jess is back from her travels to tell us about her favorite beauty boutique in Amsterdam and an unbelievable spa in London’s Old War Office. Plus: Rumour Has It (LOL) Adele is starting a beauty line; 5th Avenue in New York City is getting a fragrance makeover; Harry Style’s knows how to name a perfume; e.l.f. Cosmetics makes its debut on Roblox; Sephora is locking up its fragrances; you can take a Jo Malone fragrance masterclass; and we obsess over Lisa Eldridge’s line (both our Raise A Wands are from it!).

Digital artist Ines Alpha is pushing the boundaries of how we think about makeup—and beauty. She tells us about her creative process and explains how she brings elects of fantasy and enchantment to human faces in video post-production and augmented reality. We discuss what the future of makeup could look like (IRL, in the metaverse, and using VR glasses and headsets); the psychological effects of face filters; how she uses artificial intelligence in her art; and what she does as the global creative e-makeup director for Prada Beauty.

Jenn welcomes multi-hyphenate beauty guru Pamela Edwards Christiani, a journalist (formerly Essence & People), astrologer, and aspiring voice actor, as her guest co-host while Jess has the week off. On deck for discussion: pre-teen skincare routines; Bath & Body Works' ridiculous lineup of holiday scents; the FBI warning that hackers are targeting plastic surgeon’s offices (Pamela says Pluto's upcoming transit in Aquarius may cause all sorts of digital upheaval); how the FDA’s proposed ban on formaldehyde in hair relaxers may reignite CROWN Act legislation at the federal level; a Glossier-themed bat mitzvah in Los Angeles; and Raise A Wands for amazing lip balms, inclusive TV series, and Dr. Ryan Turner’s TRNR Skin.
